Compact linear encoders with integrated sensor technology for precise length and inclination measurement. The SL-A series combines linear encoders, signal scanning, and – in the digital versions – inclination sensors in a robust plastic housing. Thanks to magnetic, non-contact scanning, the system offers consistently high measurement accuracy and reliability – ideal for applications in mechanical and plant engineering as well as in mobile machinery. Available in 2 m, 4 m, and 8 m measuring lengths and in two versions: SL-A-S (Standard) for cost-effective series applications and SL-A-P (Precision) for the highest accuracy requirements. Digital versions with CANopen or J1939 interfaces optionally enable integrated inclination measurement and redundant signal processing. With its robust design and well-designed range of accessories, the SL-A series offers a versatile and economical solution for modern automation and positioning tasks.

Series Expansion for Measuring Lengths up to 7 Meters With the new SL00-R-GS130, FSG expands its successful SL00-R series with a variant offering a 7-meter measuring length. Building on the proven concept of the SL00-R-GS80, the new version offers the same robust design and compact dimensions as the series, complemented by an optimized cable mechanism and an adapted return spring. This makes the SL00-R-GS130 particularly suitable for applications requiring a larger measuring range while maintaining a compact design – for example, in mobile cranes, lifting systems, or industrial control systems.
